Patent EP-1626155-A3 (EP)
Inventor: BLANE DAVID
IPC: E21B17/10
Filed: 2000-07-06
Abstract: A safety valve (4) incorporated in a tubing string (2) has a diameter considerably larger than that of the rest of the tubing string (2). A cable protector (10) is fastened onto the tubing string (2) at the lead in to the safety valve (4) to ensure that cables (8) extending along the outside of the tubing string are able to cope with the changes in diameter without strain or damage. The cable protector (10) is formed from two cast bodies (12) and (14) hingedly connected together to define a substantially circular inner cross-section. The upper body member (12) is provided with an elongate cable slot (26) in which the cable (8) is received. In addition, the upper body member (12) is shaped to give the cable protector an increasing internal cross-sectional size, or transverse dimension, along its length from one end (B) to the other end (B'), whereby the distance of the cable (8) from the longitudinal axis (X-X) of the tubing string (2) increases as it extends therealong. Thus the cable (8), received within the cable slot (26), is guided along a path which has a varying spacing from the longitudinal axis (X-X).

Abstract: Liquid is sent from a liquid retainer (35) to a liquid ejection head (18) via a liquid supply line by pressurization force generated by a pressurization device that is driven by a driver. A method for cleaning a liquid ejection apparatus includes drawing the liquid from the liquid ejection head (18) through a nozzle (19) by a suction device (34); and obtaining a liquid remaining amount of the liquid retainer. The method further includes determining an operational speed of the driver in correspondence with a result of the calculation; and operating the driver at the determined operational speed when drawing the liquid by the suction device.

Abstract: An object of this invention is to provide an image processing method and image processing apparatus capable of extracting the position of an object In the unit of sub-pixel. 
     An edge pixel, density gradient direction and edge position in the unit of sub-pixel are extracted from a model image obtained by photographing a high-quality model of the object and registered in a hard disk. After a processing object image is inputted, CPU obtains a position of an image region corresponding to the model image and after that, extracts an edge pixel whose edge position in the unit of sub-pixel is related to a corresponding pixel on the model image side in that image region. The edge position in the unit of sub-pixel is extracted for these edge pixels and the quantity of deviation between the extracting position and the edge position on the model image side is calculated. The position in the unit of pixel is corrected with an average value of the quantity of deviation obtained for each edge pixel so as to obtain a real position of the object.

Abstract: Power management techniques for a Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) of a wireless communication device (WCD) are described. On technique makes use of a unique identifier for the SIM. In particular, a processor within the WCD reads a first unique identifier from the SIM when power is initially supplied to the WCD. During a power management cycle, the processor again receives a unique identifier from the SIM and compares the second unique identifier with the first unique identifier. This technique is useful in detecting whether the attached SIM has been exchanged. A voting process is also described to determine when to power-up and power-down the SIM. In particular, the voting process determines whether software modules running on the WCD require current or imminent access to the SIM.; A modified security authorization process can be added, in which the WCD caches a user access code for authenticating the user.

Abstract: A wireless system in which a pilot signal is transmitted in such a manner as to restrain error between the SIR of a data channel and that of the pilot signal, thereby improving wireless transmission quality. A specific pilot signal generator generates a specific pilot signal whose power and spreading ratio are identical with those of the data channel. A data channel generator receives propagation environment information and generates the data channel with a transmission format corresponding to the received propagation environment information. A wireless transmitter transmits the specific pilot signal and the data channel. On detecting the specific pilot signal, a propagation environment information notifier measures the SIR of the specific pilot signal, then generates propagation environment information corresponding to the measured SIR, and notifies the wireless transmitting unit of the generated information. A data channel receiver receives the data channel and processes the received data channel.
